The Traditional Lands of the Darug Nation

The Eastern Creek Speedway (Speedway) designed by Cox Architecture is a world-class Speedway within Western Sydney Parklands’ Eastern Creek Motor Sports Precinct. The project is purpose-built for the growing demands of the sport, its participants, spectators, and local stakeholders. It is a Motorplex destination for international, national and local racing events.Constructed from prefabricated modules, the building provides new food and beverage outlets, amenities, and corporate boxes. The dynamic slanted roof form is inspired by the wings of sprint cars, while colour is used to highlight building componentry as an homage to the automotive tradition of the red brake calliper and yellow shock absorber. The building supports a new world-class clay-based racetrack for both speedway cars and motorcycles including sprint, wingless sprint, street stockers, V8 dirt modified and Formula 500 cars.
